Itching in the external genitalia is unbearable, and the discharge is thick. Is it a fungal vaginal infection?

Patient's question:

Previously, I also experienced external genital itching before and after my menstrual period, and I always thought it was a reaction to sanitary pads. Recently, I had a simple physical examination, and the doctor said I have vaginitis and internal damp-heat. I have also had athlete's foot for a long time and have been too embarrassed to go to the hospital. After researching online, I want to know if it could be candidiasis vaginitis? How should it be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Analysis of the condition: Hello, the causes of vulvar itching are generally related to conditions such as vulvitis, vaginitis, dermatitis, eczema, and allergies to sanitary napkins and pads. It is recommended that you visit a hospital early for examination and targeted treatment.
